COMMERCIAL  FERTILIZERS 

By  JOHN  S.  BURD 


The  present  bulletin  comprises  the  results  of  the  fertilizer  inspec- 
tion work  of  the  California  Fertilizer  Control  for  the  fiscal  year  ending 
June  30,  1914. 

EEGISTEEED  MANUFACTURERS  AND  DEALERS 

The  following  manufacturers  and  dealers  in  commercial  fertilizers 
have  obtained  certificates  of  registration  under  the  provisions  of  the 
California  Fertilizer  law,  for  the  fiscal  year  beginning  July  1,  1913. 
A  list  is  also  given  of  the  brands  of  fertilizers  and  fertilizer  materials 
offered  by  them  for  sale.  According  to  the  sworn  returns  of  dealers 
registered  for  the  fiscal  year  ending  June  30,  1913,  their  entire  sales 
in  the  state  amounted  to  37,000  tons.  Incomplete  returns  for  the  year 
ending  June  30,  1914,  indicate  from  35,000  to  40,000  tons. 

No  dealer  or  manufacturer,  except  those  who  have  certificates  of 
registration  from  the  University  of  California,  and  their  authorized 
agents,  can  legally  sell  fertilizers  in  this  state.  No  person  or  company 
has  any  right  to  use  any  registration  number  except  in  connection 
with  the  firm  name  to  which  the  registration  certificate  of  such  number  - 
has  been  issued;  and  no  person  or  company  to  whom  a  registration 
number  has  been  assigned  has  any  right  to  give  any  other  person  or 
company  permission  to  use  said  registration  number,  and  any  number 
so  used  is  a  fraud.  No  agent  has  any  right  to  use  his  principal's 
registration  number  in  connection  with  his  own  name.

SCOPE  OF  INSPECTION 
During  the  year  586  samples  of  fertilizers  and  fertilizer  materials 
have  been  received  at  the  laboratory.  Of  this  number  23  were  sent  by 
farmers  under  the  two-dollar  fee  provision,  257  were  taken  by  in- 
spectors from  purchasers'  goods  upon  the  request  of  the  purchasers, 
and  218  were  taken  by  inspectors  from  goods  in  the  hands  of  agents 
and  manufacturers.  On  92*  samples  the  analysis  as  reported  was  used 
as  a  basis  of  settlement  by  mutual  agreement  of  buyer  and  seller.  No 
guaranty  was  required  or  given  with  goods  sold  under  such  agreement. 
Eighty-eight  samples  of  a  miscellaneous  nature  are  omitted  from  the 
tables. 

The  following  classification  may  be  made  of  samples  reported  in 
this  bulletin : 

Bat  Guano  2 

Blood 39 

Bone    Meal    46 

Calcium  Cyanamide 1 

Complete 184 

Ground  Phosphate   Rock    1 

Muriate  of  Potash 1 

Nitrate  of  Lime 2 

Nitrate  of  Lime  and  Bone 1 

Nitrate  of  Soda  12 

Sulfate  of  Potash  7 

Superphosphate    10 

Superphosphate  and  Potash 1 

Tankage   188 

Tankage  and  Lime  Nitrogen  3 

Total  498 


*  Besides  these  a  considerable  number  of  the  remaining  purchasers'   analyses  were  doubt- 
less used  subsequently  as  a  basis  of  settlement,  but  without  being  reported  to  this  office. 


Bulletin  245  COMMERCIAL  FERTILIZERS  9 

DEFICIENCIES 
In  the  analyses  of  the  above  samples,  the  following  number  of 
deficiencies  greater  than  that  allowed  by  law  occurred : 

Available  Phosphoric  Acid  (total  when  available  is  not  guar- 
anteed)      33 

Total  Nitrogen  . 54 

Potash    18 

In   valuation 45 

These  deficiencies  were  found  in  91  samples. 

The  fertilizer  law  allows  a  deficiency  of  0.25  per  cent  in  nitrogen, 
0.50  per  cent  in  potash,  and  1  per  cent  in  available  phosphoric  acid. 


FERTILIZER  VALUATIONS 

The  calculations  of  the  commercial  values  of  the  fertilizers  here 
reported  are  made  on  the  so-called  unit  basis.  Such  calculations  con- 
sist simply  in  multiplying  the  number  of  per  cent  of  each  ingredient 
by  the  price  per  unit  and  adding  the  products.  The  sum  thus  obtained 
is  the  commercial  value  per  ton  at  the  prices  used.  If  it  is  desired  to 
use  such  a  calculation  for  determining  the  amount  which  should  be 
paid  for  goods,  or  the  rebate  to  which  the  buyer  is  entitled  owing  to 
the  goods  delivered  being  below  the  guaranty,  it  can  only  be  satisfac- 
torily done  if  a  definite  price  per  unit  has  been  agreed  upon  between 
buyer  and  seller.  But  for  the  mere  purpose  of  showing  the  relative 
values  of  goods  to  guaranties,  it  is  not  at  all  necessary  that  the  prices 
adopted  should  be  the  exact  market  prices.  Thus  it  is  that  the  Fer- 
tilizer Control  in  attempting  to  show  the  relation  between  values  found 
and  values  claimed,  uses  a  schedule  which  is  admittedly  only  an 
approximate  average  of  market  values.  Owing  to  market  fluctuation, 
differences  in  cost  of  delivery  at  different  points,  and  other  causes,  the 
obtaining  of  true  average  market  prices  is  an  impossibility.  But  if  the 
reader  will  bear  in  mind  the  true  purpose  of  the  valuations  reported, 
these  will  have  served  their  turn  and  he  will  not  be  led  to  assume  that 
the  experiment  Station  is  dictating  the  prices  at  which  goods  shall  be 
sold.

CAUTION  TO  FERTILIZER  CONSUMERS 

It  cannot  be  too  frequently  pointed  out  that  the  commercial  value 
and  the  agricultural  value  of  fertilizers  is  in  no  way  related.  The 
choice  of  the  kind  of  plant  food  to  be  purchased  should  be  based  on  a 
knowledge  of  the  needs  of  the  particular  crop  and  soil  to  be  treated. 
Only  after  this  is  decided  should  the  cost  of  the  fertilizer  be  considered, 
when  the  particular  kind  of  fertilizer  supplying  the  ingredient  desired 
should  be  selected  according  to  its  agricultural  availability  and  cost. 


REPORT   OF  ANALYSES 

Available  phosphoric  acid  is  not  determined  in  bone  meal,  tankage, 
and  Thomas  phosphate  powder,  unless  requested.  The  fineness  of 
these  materials  is  determined,  fine  and  medium  bone  being  separated 
by  a  sieve  of  50  meshes  to  the  inch ;  tankage  by  a  25-mesh  sieve ;  and 
Thomas  phosphate  powder  by  a  100-mesh  sieve. 

Nitrogen  in  ammonia  salts  will,  in  some  cases,  be  found  reported 
when  nitrogen  in  this  form  is  not  guaranteed.  In  some  of  such  cases 
this  form  of  nitrogen  is  produced  by  conversion  of  organic  nitrogen 
during  process  of  manufacture,  and  is  not  to  be  considered  a  deviation 
from  guaranty  of  materials  used.  Guanos  carry  more  or  less  nitrogen 
in  nitrates  and  ammonia  salts,  and  when  any  appreciable  quantity  of 
guano  is  used  the  manufacturer  should  take  into  account  the  fact  that 


Bulletin  245  COMMERCIAL  FERTILIZERS  11 

some  nitrogen  will  show  as  nitrates  and  ammonia  salts.  The  failure  to 
take  this  into  consideration  may  perhaps  account  for  the  appearance 
of  these  forms  of  nitrogen  in  some  samples  in  which  only  organic 
nitrogen  was  guaranteed. 

The  percentage  of  chlorin  is  given  when  it  exceeds  0.50  per  cent. 
It  is  a  matter  of  only  technical  interest  whether  chlorin  present  is 
from  muriate  of  potash,  kainit,  or  from  common  salt  that  may  be  in 
some  of  the  materials  used.  If  a  manufacturer  uses  sulfate  of  potash 
and  uses  a  tankage  with  it  containing  a  large  amount  of  chlorin,  from 
a  practical  standpoint  he  lias  lowered  the  grade  of  his  fertilizer  just 
as  much  as  if  he  had  used  muriate  of  potash  instead  of  sulfate  of 
potash.  Chlorin  from  all  other  sources  is  as  objectionable  as  from 
muriate  of  potash.  However,  if  muriate  of  potash  is  found  when 
sulfate  is  guaranteed,  the  fact  will  be  published. 

The  following  abbreviations  are  used  in  the  tables :  Bl  ===  blood, 
Bn  =  bone,  Fs  —  fish,  G  =  guano,  Super  =  superphosphates,  T  = 
tankage,  H  =  hoof,  Min.  Phos.  ==  mineral  phosphate,  C.  S.  Meal  = 
cotton  seed  meal. 

Guarantees  are  entered  in  italics.  Deficiencies  greater  than  allowed 
by  law  are  entered  in  bold  type.
